Correction: The article earlier stated there will “a series” of special tributes to Sydney NYE2023 Charity Partner, the National Breast Cancer Foundation in addition to the 10pm Pink Moment. Sydney Spectaculars has received clarification that there will be only the 10pm Pink Moment and not an extra “series” of special tributes.
THE SWEATS has revealed the Midnight Fireworks will be set to 3 music pieces titled NYE (Again), Tiny Sparks & One More Revolution respectively:
The soundtrack draws on house and bass music influences, hyper-pop, drum and bass & old school electronica in tandem with bombastic brass sections and lush choral moments.
It took roughly 2 months to compose, record and produce the soundtrack which comprises 3 individual pieces titled NYE (Again), Tiny Sparks & One More Revolution, that slot together like a DJ mix to create a single, seamless 12-minute track.
Pulling it together was quite the production that involved lead vocals by Royston Esq, 9 children yelling, 33 choristers singing, several backing vocalists & various mixing and mastering engineers.
Writing music for an event of this scale has been an incredible honour & it’s a great privilege to share it with the world.
